Ready, set, go! Welcome to 2016! Now is the time to do
anything and everything that you have been putting off. Everything that you
said “in January I am going to (you fill in the blank).”No excuses.
What is near and dear to your heart? What is the desire God
has placed in you that just will not go away? You fall asleep thinking about
it. You wake up in the morning thinking about it. During the day when your mind
drifts you catch yourself thinking about it. What is it? Have you written it
down? What is your vision or better yet, what is Gods vision for you? What are
you doing about it?
I have always had a heart for those that are hurting.
Sometimes the signs are obvious while at other times they are not. I yearn to
see the broken restored.
As a female quite naturally I have a heart for women, but it
doesn’t stop there. In my own quest for self-analysis, and during my own
journey I have found that oftentimes my opportunities for growth also involved
a male in my life. Male and female relationships involve a females
understanding of a male as well as a males understanding of a female. Let’s be
honest, if we want any relationship to work we must be willing to make an
effort to make it work. If one person desires for a relationship to work more
than the other person in the relationship the person that wants the
relationship to work most is usually more willing to work on the relationship.
Our makeup is both spiritual and physical. Our spirit
resides in a physical body that carries emotions. Our emotions often dictate
how we react. We must learn how to balance the spiritual with the physical. We
must recognize our battle is spiritual while at the same time recognizing the
needs of the physical.
My focus for 2016 is prayer, salvation, healing, deliverance
and restoration as you will see when you click on this link http://www.gretahillman.com/#!ssif/dork3

What is your commitment? What is your focus? It doesn’t
matter what has happened in the past. Now is the acceptable time. Today is a
new day. Maybe you have been working on your vision for years, or perhaps it’s
just come to you. It doesn’t matter. It’s up to you to do all you can by the
grace of God. No excuses. Set realistic goals and move forward. The only one
standing in your way is you. Let 2016 be your year!
